CONTROLLER Standby Instrument: common questions
What microcontroller does the CONTROLLER Standby Instrument use?
The CONTROLLER Standby Instrument is built around the MH, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the CONTROLLER Standby Instrument PCB?
The CONTROLLER Standby Instrument measures 99.1 × 71.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the CONTROLLER Standby Instrument?
14 components, from 12 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the CONTROLLER Standby Instrument design files?
From the Exprezz0/F-18C_Simulator repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the CONTROLLER Standby Instrument design in my own project?
It is published under CC-BY-NC-4.0, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.
Can I test firmware for the CONTROLLER Standby Instrument without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
